Hey all,

Trying to see what's on the 2.6 root.img, I've been unsuccessful
mounting it as loop or the actual floppy.

What filesystem type is it? I figured it was ext2, but mount says it's
not.

I've tried cramfs, hfs, hfsplus, but it's not working.

Regards,
Duane

the root floppy is (sometimes) a compressed /ext2 image

        cp root.img /tmp/root.gz
        gunzip /tmp/root.gz
        mount -v -t etx2 -o ro,loop /tmp/root /media/floppy

or some such thing as that.

and (somteimes) a cramfs filesystem.

I don't know under what circumstances which is chosen.
